DESCRIPTION
The Planet lip and spur drill bits are a top - choice for wood drilling. They feature a steeper helix angle compared to regular drill bits, along with deeper flutes that quickly clear waste. This allows for fast and clean cutting. The brad point tip guarantees straight and precise drilling, while the sharp spurs minimize grain tear - out, leaving a smooth edge. These 12mm single drill bits (LSHSS12) are ideal for use with doweling jigs.
Using this 12mm Planet lip and spur drill bit is easy. First, make sure your drill is set to the appropriate speed for wood drilling. Insert the drill bit firmly into the drill chuck. When starting to drill, place the brad point tip on the spot where you want to make the hole to ensure accurate positioning. Keep the drill perpendicular to the wood surface for a straight hole. As you drill, the bit's deep flutes will clear waste quickly, but if you notice any clogging, stop and remove the debris. After use, wipe the drill bit clean with a dry cloth to prevent rust. Store it in a dry place, away from moisture. Don't use it on materials other than wood as it's specifically designed for woodworking.
